RAF Manston History Museum - Open cockpit Day April 16, 2023

 


..another gorgeous sunny day and a brilliant turnout as visitors flocked (yes, flocked!) to clamber on over, in and through some of the neat airframes exhibited at the RAF History Museum at Manston, Kent, England on one of the museum's regular open cockpit days. Where else in the UK can you sit in a Lightning, Buccaneer, Canberra and Victor, to name just four types? And everything in the Buccaneer works too. Heck, even the Auster is fun - pedals and stick work just as they should !  Thanks to 'johnboygtv' for the great drone shots of the museum. Not often you get to see a Lightning from this angle.
